Speaking of MLG, does CSGO even have any console presence since its release?

What the hell, cs:go is out for consoles?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovWEUFgzlSA

Oh lord this looks terrible. There appears to be no aim assist either

E:this may be what what n0thing was talking about on the Joe Rogan podcast. Early in cs:go's console development they apparently entertained the idea of making it cross platform, and at some point put n0thing up against people playing with controllers and the results were obviously not pretty

e2: some further research tells me that the game hasn't been updated for the last three years, so it's more than likely stone dead.

I received a G9 Logitech years and years ago as a gift and I've always liked it until recently. Unless I'm at max DPI if I pick up the mouse to move it on the desk it stops tracking unless I flail it around really quickly to get it to go again. I've swapped out mouse pads but no luck. Is it most likely just faulty at this point? I've had it for 5-6 years.

I've had 2 Logitech mice replaced in the last 10 years without even being asked to send it in at all, let alone send it in first like an RMA. Fantastic company, in the USA. I hear Australian Logitech is not so friendly.

Likely someone selling a knife but not wanting to do it away from the steam market so they trash a bunch of dollar skins at the maximum price, and then trade the knife for free.

not if the knife-salesman has a reputation they care about more than the knife-buyer. it's a relatively safe method for the transaction as it can't be charged-back and the parties involved don't have to give up real-life identifying information. people sell things in all sorts of wonderful and silly ways.

Probably someone trying to fool the pricing calculations on some gambling sites. Like if the site uses the average price of last week and there aren't any safeguards in place, it's fairly easy to artificially inflate the value of certain items.

No. I know it's kind of a joke "lol volvo pls more hats dont fix the game" but uhhh it does actually seem to be a low priority. Unless it's actually pretty difficult to fix? Someone with more coding experience may be able to say.

Why is your account locked? And isn't Steam customer service notoriously bad?

I had some words about a bunch of hitbox poo poo in CSGO with somebody who worked as a lead programmer on a released source engine game. And by words I mean "Haha have you seen this dumbshittery???"

To paraphrase the last conversation: "lol Sources animation poo poo is a loving clusterfuck gl to the idiot who has to fix that poo poo"

This is art. Play of the year 2k15.

And at least the camera showed the frags. I watched a match earlier this or last week where like three rounds in a row they watched the ct holding a while the guys at b and mid got all the frags. Just one dude endlessly scoping into ramp on mirage.

You know, I was just about to say that Liquid has to be one of the worst teams in the NA pro scene, but then I decided to take a look at the standings of ESEA, and holy poo poo, Liquid looks like Gods compared to some of the teams that are at the bottom:

Tempo Storm: 4-7
Ace Gaming: 2-9
Method: 1-9
mouseSpaz: 1-11

Method's only win was against mouseSpaz, and mouseSpaz's only win was against Luminosity, who is sitting at 3rd place at 8-4. NA loving blows.

Since this is my first one, I'm still trying to wrap my head around what operations 'are'.. They just tell you to play various gamemodes that are already there, add nothing, and at the end of the operation you get a fancy coin?

You need to consider that the talent pool in Europe is far bigger and better than it is in NA, so while those scores look pretty bad (except for Flipsid3 and Penta, they are right where they belong), I'd say it's definitely a tougher challenge in the long-run for most EU teams.

The consensus on NA teams seems to be that there are plenty of good NA players individually, but they lack a lot of the teamwork practice that EU does.. Mostly NA teams just scrim, whereas EU teams are practicing setpieces and formulating strats, and drilling them

I don't know how true this is in reality but it seems more plausible than a lot of other explanations
